How Much Government?
t. o mi. mllii from New York
to Salt Lake City. Utah. Yet, if all
the civilian employees in the execu
tive branch of our federal govern
ment were six feet tall (they're not),
and you placed them head to toe on
U. S. Highway 30, they'd reach the
distance easily with 1.4 miles to
spare. "Bhis comparison is conser
vative. It was based on an estimate
nf 9 million eovernment workers in
the executive branch alone.
Perhaps nobody can ever know
it hnm msnv there are. During
the first four months of this year,
they increased at a rate of more
than 450 a day. use anomer com-executive

, At the rate we have been

That would be one of the simplest
ways to take the country mio so

paychecks from the government, in
salaries and various benefits, and
we would have socialism right here
without voting for it What we need
constantly to remember is that the
government has not a cent to spend
except what It collects from you
and me and from our neighbors.
It's Up to Congress
Our next Congress will have
real test, and a real opporuuw.
Last year, the 80th Congress pro
vided this historic opportunity by
